With seconds remaining in the first half, Lija Athletics A had a prime opportunity to level the score as they were granted a penalty. However, their hopes were dashed as Swieqi’s goalkeeper, Christiana Pisani, brilliantly denied Ruth Steer Cheetham’s attempt, maintaining Swieqi’s lead.

Entering the second half, Swieqi United Futsal continued to assert their dominance on the court. Danna Fuentes once again showcased her scoring prowess, finding the back of the net in the 31st minute to extend Swieqi’s lead.

Ten minutes later, Andjela Kricak further solidified Swieqi’s advantage, slotting home from close range to make it 3-0, leaving Lija Athletics A with a daunting task ahead.
